The internet: A series of tubes
Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska
They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet.
And again, the internet is not something that you just dump
something on. It's not a big truck. It's a series of tubes. And if
you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are
filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going
to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous
amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.
